32-bits rather than 64. This is possible, because there is
always an active null (heartbeat) timer, with periodicity
of less than or equal to the maximum 32-bit int value.
This generates a little less code in the hot part of cpu_loop,
and saved about 3% execution time on a Win95 boot.
Moved the asynchronous handling code from cpu_loop() to its
own function since it's a long path. This neatened up the
code a little (less gotos and all), and made it more clear
to use a "while (1)" around the iterative code in cpu_loop().

so that windows types can be used in fields, for example in cdrom.h:
#ifdef WIN32
HANDLE cdrom_interface::hFile;

coverage of the high-frequency eflags instructions. That should
complete the asm() eflags updates for now, as we should be stabilizing
moving towards bochs 2.0.
integrate it, if it looks good. Putting here for the CVS trail.
"This patch adds extra inline asm statements for the most important
instructions I found to be still resorting to lazy flags execution.
I counted the instructions that "hit" and "missed" when an eflag
value was needed - if there was a miss, the flag was not known and
had to be calculated with lazy_flags.cc. The culprit instruction
which last executed to affect the eflags was tallied."
These seem to be working better, are a more simple design,
easier to understand, and AFAIK don't have race conditions
in them like the old ones do.
Re-coded the apic timer, to return cycle accurate values
which vary with each iteration of a read from a guest OS.
The previous implementation had very poor resolution. It
also didn't check the mask bit to see if an apic timer
interrupt should occur on countdown to 0. The apic timer
now calls its own bochs timer, rather than tag on the
one in iodev/devices.cc.
I needed to use one new function which is an inline in
pc_sytem.h. That would have to be added to the old pc_system.h if
we have to back-out to it.
Linux/x86-64 now boots until it hits two undefined opcodes:
FXRSTOR (0f ae). This restores FPU, MMX, XMM and MXCSR registers
from a 512-byte region of memory. We don't implement this yet.
MOVNTDQ (66 0f e7). This is a move involving an XMM register.
The 0x66 prefix is used so it's a double quadword, rather than
MOVNTQ (0f e7) which operates on a single quadword.
The Linux kernel panic is on the MOVNTQD opcodes. Perhaps that's
because that opcode is used in exception handling of the 1st?
Looks like we need to implement some new instructions.
version uses the cdrom drives in the system's order. Drive letters are not
used by ASPI.
- wrong BX_INFO message for ASPI disabled. The version number is never checked.
override default. This is useful if you have more than one wx installation,
for example debug and release libraries.
- modified: Makefile.in configure.in configure
parameter so we know which source modules are requesting
timers. Also added a SpewPeriodicTimerInfo #define in
case somebody is still having guest OS hang problems. If
enabled, this macro will force a brief dump of the active timers
list to the bochsout.txt file, every 5Million ticks.
If the lowest timer's period is extremely low, that would be
suspect.
requesting source can be registered as well. Otherwise, there
is no way to know which source modules are requesting
suspect frequencies which are too high.
instead of winmm being a part of GUI_LINK_OPTS_WIN32 only, it is
placed in @DEVICE_LINE_OPTS@ so that it will be used for sdl, rfb, wx,
etc.
- solve compile problems when building bximage, niclist, and any other
console based program. The compile flags returned by wx-config and
sdl-config did strange things to these console programs, for example
redefining main to SDL_main. Because I wanted to use the
configure-generated CFLAGS to compile the programs, but I wanted to
avoid including GUI specific compile options, I split up the configure's
@CFLAGS@ variable into @CFLAGS@ and @GUI_CFLAGS@, and split
@CXXFLAGS@ into @CXXFLAGS@ and @GUI_CXXFLAGS@. All programs in the
Bochs binary will use both, but the console programs will just use
@CFLAGS@ or @CXXFLAGS@.
- gui/Makefile.in, I no longer use the gui specific CFLAGS variables,
SDL_CFLAGS and WX_CXXFLAGS. These values are included in CFLAGS and
CXXFLAGS now.
- modified: configure.in, configure, all Makefile.in's
Include SDL.h so that the C language prototype can be found. Otherwise
SDL_main() will get its name mangled and not match what the SDL library is
expecting.
testing. Please try these out if you want to help test
them or if your guest OS appears to be hanging with
no apparent activity. The old bochs internal timer
framework is broken in several areas.
I put these in the patches directory for now. After
a 'make all-clean', you can do something like:
mv pc_system.cc pc_system.cc-old
mv pc_system.h pc_system.h-old
cp patches/pc_system.cc-kpl .
cp patches/pc_system.h-kpl .
make
And let me know if A) they work for you and B) if they help
the hanging problem.
